| Highland Lakes (Buchanan & LBJ) Guide Report Lake Buchanan: Water clear; 48-50 degrees; 1013.06' (7' low) Cold fronts slow the bass bite for maybe a day or two before they go on a feeding binge as the weather stabilizes. On the other hand, cooler water temperatures kick start the stripers and white bass. Largemouth are sluggish in 8'-25' over brushpiles along bluff ledges using watermelon Devil's Tongues or camo JDC Drop Shot Worms on drop shot rigs and Carolina rigged watermelon-red Snap Back lizards. Stripers are good from The Willows uplake in 22'-30' drifting live bait, vertically jigging 1/2 oz. silver Pirk Minnows, Albino Snap Back soft jerkbaits rigged on a 3/0 RED Bait Jerker Hook (Falcon Lures) and trolling 1/2 oz. striper jigs. White Bass are fair to good w/limits of fish up to 2 lbs. on points at Morgan Creek and from Beaver Creek to Mud Island trolling deep diving Shad Raps, casting 2" Spoiler Shads and jigging 1/4 oz. Pirk Minnows. To book a guided trip for largemouth, stripers or white bass contact JR's Guide Service (www.jrguideservice.com). Call (830) 833-5688 or email jimfiles@moment.net. __________________________________________________ _______________ Lake LBJ: Water clear to stained; 51 degrees; 825.96' (full) This latest cold front will effect bass and crappie for a few days but they'll be back on their feed as soon as the weather stabilizes before the round of cold air moves in. White Bass, already plenti- ful, should really improve. Largemouth are only fair along docks, boulders and rip rap in 8'-15' pitching black-purple 1/4 oz. Terminator Pro Series jigs, wacky rigged bubblegum Scoundrel worms, smoke-red JDC Craws and cranking medium chartreuse-blue back crankbaits. Stripers N/A. White Bass are good in 14'-26' over humps and along mainlake points and channel breaklines vertically jigging Pirk Minnows and swimming Spoiler Shads. Crappie are fair to good in 4'-10' on brushpiles, laydowns and docks w/wooden legs using 2" grubs on 1/16 oz. jigheads, 1/32 oz. plastic or hair crappie jigs and minnows.
